The hype
Travelers praise the spacious, spotless rooms and the massive breakfast spread, but often note the immediate neighborhood feels 'transitional.'

$130-200/ natt
Boka detta om You want a modern, predictable crash pad exactly 300 meters from the train station with a killer breakfast buffet.
Varför människor älskar det
- Unbeatable proximity to Bologna Centrale for early trains
- Soundproofed windows that actually block out the station chaos
- The 'Lazy Sunday' late checkout policy (free until 3pm for members)
Snabb Överblick: It’s a polished corporate machine on the edge of a gritty station square—perfect for logistics, less so for romance.
Recenserat av @londonslifecoach: I felt like total royalty in this secret suite! It’s literally right next to the train station but feels so private. That massive terrace was my favorite spot for morning coffee, and the VIP welcome treats were such a nice touch. Definitely the coolest way to stay in Bologna.

Reality check
You might book for the 'Sky Bar' views, but it's only open June–September and closes by 11pm.
- You have a 6am train to catch
- You prioritize a high-pressure shower and a firm mattress over historic charm
- You need reliable, fast Wi-Fi for Zoom calls
Renlighet & Underhåll
8.8
- Housekeeping: Daily and efficient. Reviews consistently praise the 'spotless' nature of the rooms.
- Bathroom hygiene: Immaculate. Grout is white, glass is streak-free. No mold reports found.
- Maintenance: Solid. It's a corporate chain, so broken things get fixed fast. Furniture is modern but standard.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, white, and high-thread-count. Towels are fluffy enough.
- Odors & scents: Neutral. No heavy perfumes, but also no mustiness—just a clean, sanitized smell.

FAQ & Dolda tips
Allt du verkligen vill veta innan du bokar.
Is the area safe at night?
The hotel itself is very secure, but the station square (Piazza XX Settembre) attracts loiterers. It's generally safe to walk through, but stay alert and stick to the well-lit porticoes of Via dell'Indipendenza.
Is there a gym?
No. This is a major sore point. Unless you book a Suite (which has a bike), you only get a 'Technogym Case' with bands/mat upon request.
How much is breakfast?
Around €15-20 per person if not included in your rate. It's widely considered worth it for the variety.
Does it have parking?
No on-site garage. They partner with a nearby lot (often 'Garage Masini') for ~€20/day, but you have to walk a bit.
How far is the walk to the center?
It's a straight 15-minute shot down the main shopping street (Via dell'Indipendenza) to reach Piazza Maggiore.
Can I open the windows?
Yes, but you probably shouldn't due to the noise. The AC is strong and effective.
Insider-tips
- ✨
Ask for the 'Technogym Case' at reception immediately upon check-in; they have limited stock.
- ✨
The 'Sky Bar' is seasonal (June-Sept) and often hosts private events, so call ahead before heading up.
- ✨
There is a secret shortcut through the Montagnola Park to get to the market area, but avoid it after dark.
5 saker du bör veta innan du åker
💡The elevators are surprisingly small for a hotel of this size—expect a wait at 9am.
💡The 'minibar' is often just a fridge you can stock yourself (which is actually a plus).
💡You can hear the faint rumble of trains from the basement levels/lobby, but not the rooms.
💡The lobby candy station is a nice touch but often empty by evening.
💡Housekeeping is aggressive about the 12pm checkout unless you have the 'Lazy Sunday' pass.
